Vienna.

I'm not much of a writer. I will try to express myself the best I can without pictures... Today has been a good day. As me and my best friend Ashley drove home from our friends house this morning we talked about a variety of subjects based on, friends, moving, school, family, and our future husbands. (That's a lot to cover on a drive home huh? haha) We also talked about how lucky we are to have each other and so lucky to have all the blessings we have in our lives. I enjoyed the rest of the day with my sister Katie, her friend Shirley, Kase, and little Tike. We went to the Farmer's Market (I bought some amazing jewelry and a sweet bag..of course I couldn't pass them up) and we enjoyed the sunshine, the food, and all the happy people browsing around and then I finished up the afternoon taking a hike up the canyon. I had a good day. Sometimes I worry. I worry too much about my life and my future. I sometimes get impatient and think my life is at a stand still. I worry that I'm never progressing and staying the same person. I worry everyday! When I express these worries to my daddy he always says.."it isn't a race Sam." I always think, 'easy for you to say! you're married with a career, house, children, and grandchildren.' But of course he is right. (he always is!) I was listening to the song Vienna by Billy Joel and I love the lyrics. I keep listening to it over and over again. Here's a few that stuck out to me...

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about? You'd better cool it off before you burn it out.
But you know that when the truth is told.. That you can get what you want or you just get old
Slow down, you're doing fine You can't be everything you want to be Before your time Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight... Tonight,... Too bad but it's the life you lead you're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need Though you can see when you're wrong, you know You can't always see when you're right.

Slow down, you crazy child.

Things will work out for me. I know they will. :) I need to slow down.. like I did today and appreciate this stage of my life and enjoy all I can. I need to learn to take one day at a time and do my best everyday. I'm learning. I'm trying to grow. I love my life. I love to know that I have so much ahead of me, but to also realize that life it toooo short to be worrying so much. Thanks for all your help. I hope this all made sense. It's a bit scattered but that's how my thoughts are! haha. I love you all. Peace. xoxo.
